a man with a brand new valise that .
had spashes of mud on itand gave?
other evidence of having just arrived ,

When the conductor stopped to take ;
his fare he pulled out a roll of bills.
The conductor extracted a nickel
from a one dollar bill and handed over ,
the change. The man with the valise
extracted a silver quarter dollar from
the change and handed it back to the
conductor. .
“Here,” he said, so loudly tliat every ;
one in the car looked to see what was
going on, “here’s a quarter for your
self.”
“I’ve taken out a nickel,” said the
conductor. “I don’t want any more."
"Now, don’t say another word

A story was told by a gentleman of
New York of an egperience that a
brother of his, a blind man, had while
he was in the city from a small town
in Jersey, where he resides. On the
day mentioned the blind man was with-
out a guide and stood on the corner of
Twenty—thizd street and Broadway,
wishing to cross the street. While de‘
hating with himself as to whether he
would try it alone or call a policeman,
a woman came up and addressed him,
saying: "Mister, would you be kind
enough to help me across the street?
’l'lreic is such a jam of trucks and carts
that I am afraid to try to cross alone."
“certainly: with pleasure, madam,” he
responded and, offering her his arm,
they s:artcd across Broadway, crossing
in salety. "Thank you, very much,”
said 2.1;: woman. "No, madam. It is I
who on: thankful, for I am blind and
you hefped me to avoid that dangerous
crossing very nicely,” said the man.

Brandreth’s Pills
The difference between these pills "and allother medicines
is
told in the following statement of facts:
Ist. They have been in active demandin the markets of the world since I770,
orfoi‘ nearly one hundred and thirty years. . ,
2d. 'They are purely vegetable, and are made of the purest an highest
class drugs obtainable.
- ‘anfif‘. ,._ . . ”micron-'13.. ._
,3d. They are kept for two years in our’ storeho‘uses after being made, and
no pills are sold until they are-Two YEARS old.. This allows them to
become thoroughly. mellowed and» makes "Of them the very best
and safest cathartic medicine that it is pessible to procure. ’
4th. They never become inured to the system; that is, the Same dose
will always produce the same efiect. This cannot truthfully be said
of any other medicine.
There are others who claim it, but
demonstrations show it to be true only of BRANDRETH'S PILLS.
5th. They never produce griping or pain unless the stomach is in a very
acid condition. and then only if the dose is a large one.
In doses of
one or two pills~ they never cause pain or otherinconvenience.
6th. One pill taken after a heavy meal will relieve distress immediately.
7th. BRANDRETH'S PILLS are composed one-third of the best extract of sarsa-
parilla that can be made. It is highly concentrated and it makes of these
pills the best blood purifiers that you can get, one 25-cent box con-
taining more of the active blood-purifying principle of sarsaparilla
than a. dollar’s worth of any liquid preparation in the market.
8th. One or two, taken every night. will cure rheumatism in almost every
instance.
9th. They are a posxtive and effective remedy for constipation and for all the
long list of ills that follow in its wake—such as dyspepsia, dizziness,
drowsiness, coated tongue, foul breath, headache, pain in the stomach,
etc. Take one or two pills every night-cone is usually enough—and
be certain that a cure will follow.
Ioth.
They are the best complexion pills. After you hate taken them for a .
few nights, your skin will assume a wholesome, healthful color, your
eye a brilliant lustret and sallowness and pimples will disappear.
nth. BRANDREI‘H'S PILLS NEVER injure—you a're always in better health
after taking a dose—they are the safest medicine to give children and
women in delicate health.
One pill isusually sufficient.
12th. No medicine is made with such infinite care as BRANDRETH’S PILLS
—no medicine but BRANDRETH’S PILLS is kept for Two YEARS before
they are boxed to be Sold.
13th. Except in sudden and acute sickness, when the dose should be from
four to eight pills. the best results are obtained by taking one or two _
pills every night for a week or two. They act on the liver and leave
that organ in a perfectly healthy state, and when your liver is right
your blood is pure, and you are well. Don't bully your liver with
powerful medicine, but coax it with BRANDRETH’S PILLS.
14th. BRANDRETH'S PILLS are sold throughout the world. with and without
sugar coating. They never fail to do their work.
